    Question about 2500 HD for Overland Platform

    Yep. Not exactly apples to apples (nice trim adds a lot of weight) but my ‘18 2500 diesel Laramie had a 1950lb payload and my ‘22 3500 diesel Tradesman has a 4250lb payload.

    Nice spot to take a break. How long was she in repair after the crash?

    Aviation sub-category? Bush flying, helicopters, etc?

    Just around Fairbanks. The take off and flying isn’t too much different than what I was used to years ago but the landing is definitely something to adjust to.

    Aviation sub-category? Bush flying, helicopters, etc?

    Knocked out a few hours in a super cub working on the tail wheel endorsement. For not having flown fixed wing in 19 years it wasn’t as bad as I anticipated. Definitely different flying a plane that small and light when you’re used to something ten times heavier with 25 times the horsepower.

    NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE

    A bit of both. A lot of campground plugs are not rated for a continuous high (32-40amp) draw for an EV changing as opposed to powering a camper AC unit or two. Some are wired so that multiple sites share a breaker that isn’t rated to the full capacity of all sites simultaneously. There’s also...

    That varies depending on campground. Some let you do it and don’t care, some let you do it but charge a fee for the extra electricity used, some don’t allow it at all.

    Aviation sub-category? Bush flying, helicopters, etc?

    Doesn’t sound so bad. I just flew there a few days ago and will be back up through again today if weather in the pass holds out. Looks like fun flying those little birds around. I need to get off my ass and buy a bush plane so I can get out to some of the remote cabins in Wrangell-St Elias.

    How was the Denali tour flying? I’ve been considering it as a post retirement part time gig.

    Are ARB the only player left for simple large frame winch bumpers for 4th gen Ram 2500?

    Not a full bumper and might need a different winch but maybe an option? https://www.cjcoffroad.com/products/vice-designs-hidden-winch-mount-2013-2018-ram-2500-3500-6-7-cummins

    Probably works the same way as a normal drive axle and only regens on deceleration.

    Cache Camper Fishhook

    Nice. My Cache Camper has been doing well for me so far. It’s built out more and heavier than the Fishhook but still way under my 3500’s payload.

    Starlink or Garmin in reach

    Right now a Starlink Mini ($299 in US) and its service ($10/month 10GB) is cheaper than a good quality radio and antenna and arguably far more useful in more situations. I’d still go with an Inreach or PLB for emergency use over either option.
